1. Quadratic Discriminant and Real Roots | 二次判别式与实根
Question: Given f(x) = 2x² – 3x + k, determine the set of values of k for which the equation f(x) = 0 has no real roots.
题目：已知 f(x) = 2x² – 3x + k，求使方程 f(x) = 0 无实数根的 k 的取值范围。
For the quadratic ax² + bx + c = 0 to have no real roots, the discriminant must be negative: b² – 4ac < 0. Here a = 2, b = –3, c = k. Compute D = (–3)² – 4(2)(k) = 9 – 8k. Set 9 – 8k < 0 → 8k > 9 → k > 9/8. Hence the required condition is k > 9/8.
要使二次方程 ax² + bx + c = 0 无实数根，判别式必须小于零：b² – 4ac < 0。此处 a = 2, b = –3, c = k。计算 D = (–3)² – 4(2)(k) = 9 – 8k。令 9 – 8k < 0 → 8k > 9 → k > 9/8。因此所求条件为 k > 9/8。
2. Intersection of a Line and a Circle | 直线与圆的交点
Question: Find the coordinates of the points of intersection between the line y = 2x – 1 and the circle x² + y² = 25.
题目：求直线 y = 2x – 1 与圆 x² + y² = 25 的交点坐标。
Substitute y = 2x – 1 into the circle equation: x² + (2x – 1)² = 25 → x² + 4x² – 4x + 1 = 25 → 5x² – 4x – 24 = 0. Solve the quadratic: discriminant = (–4)² – 4(5)(–24) = 16 + 480 = 496 = 16 × 31. Then x = [4 ± 4√31] / (10) = (2 ± 2√31)/5. So x₁ = (2 + 2√31)/5, x₂ = (2 – 2√31)/5. The corresponding y‑values are y = 2x – 1. The two intersection points are ((2+2√31)/5, (4+4√31)/5 – 1) and ((2–2√31)/5, (4–4√31)/5 – 1). Simplify if required.
将 y = 2x – 1 代入圆的方程：x² + (2x – 1)² = 25 → x² + 4x² – 4x + 1 = 25 → 5x² – 4x – 24 = 0。解这个二次方程：判别式 = (–4)² – 4(5)(–24) = 16 + 480 = 496 = 16 × 31。则 x = [4 ± 4√31] / 10 = (2 ± 2√31)/5。因此 x₁ = (2 + 2√31)/5，x₂ = (2 – 2√31)/5。相应的 y = 2x – 1。两交点坐标为 ((2+2√31)/5, (4+4√31)/5 – 1) 和 ((2–2√31)/5, (4–4√31)/5 – 1)，可进一步化简。
3. Exponential Equation with Natural Logarithms | 用自然对数求解指数方程
Question: Solve 3²ˣ⁺¹ = 5, giving your answer in terms of natural logarithms.
题目：解方程 3²ˣ⁺¹ = 5，答案用自然对数表示。
Take the natural logarithm of both sides: ln(3²ˣ⁺¹) = ln 5 → (2x + 1) ln 3 = ln 5. Expand: 2x ln 3 + ln 3 = ln 5 → 2x ln 3 = ln 5 – ln 3 = ln(5/3). Thus x = ln(5/3) / (2 ln 3). This is the exact form.
两边取自然对数：ln(3²ˣ⁺¹) = ln 5 → (2x + 1) ln 3 = ln 5。展开：2x ln 3 + ln 3 = ln 5 → 2x ln 3 = ln 5 – ln 3 = ln(5/3)。因此 x = ln(5/3) / (2 ln 3)，即为精确表达式。
4. Logarithmic Equation with Quotient | 含商的对数方程
Question: Solve log₂(x + 1) – log₂(x – 2) = 3.
题目：解方程 log₂(x + 1) – log₂(x – 2) = 3。
Combine the logs: log₂((x + 1)/(x – 2)) = 3. Rewrite in exponential form: (x + 1)/(x – 2) = 2³ = 8. Multiply both sides by (x – 2): x + 1 = 8(x – 2) → x + 1 = 8x – 16 → 7x = 17 → x = 17/7. Check domain: x + 1 > 0 and x – 2 > 0 → x > 2. Since 17/7 ≈ 2.43 > 2, the solution is valid.
合并对数：log₂((x + 1)/(x – 2)) = 3。化为指数形式：(x + 1)/(x – 2) = 2³ = 8。两边同乘 (x – 2)：x + 1 = 8(x – 2) → x + 1 = 8x – 16 → 7x = 17 → x = 17/7。检查定义域：x + 1 > 0 且 x – 2 > 0 → x > 2。17/7 ≈ 2.43 > 2，故解有效。
5. Trigonometric Equation for Double Angle | 二倍角三角方程
Question: Solve sin 2θ = √3/2 for 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°.
题目：解 sin 2θ = √3/2，其中 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°。
Let α = 2θ. Then sin α = √3/2 → α = 60°, 120°, plus multiples of 360°. So α = 60° + 360°k or α = 120° + 360°k. Since 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°, we need 0° ≤ α ≤ 720°. For α = 60° + 360°k: k=0 → α=60°, k=1 → α=420°. For α = 120° + 360°k: k=0 → α=120°, k=1 → α=480°. All are within 0°–720°. Thus 2θ = 60°, 120°, 420°, 480° → θ = 30°, 60°, 210°, 240°. Check all solutions satisfy the original interval.
设 α = 2θ，则 sin α = √3/2 → α = 60°, 120°，外加 360° 的整数倍。故 α = 60° + 360°k 或 α = 120° + 360°k。因 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360°，则 0° ≤ α ≤ 720°。情况 α = 60° + 360°k：k=0 → α=60°，k=1 → α=420°。情况 α = 120° + 360°k：k=0 → α=120°，k=1 → α=480°。均在 0°–720° 内。因此 2θ = 60°, 120°, 420°, 480° → θ = 30°, 60°, 210°, 240°。验证所有解均满足原区间。
6. Chain Rule in Differentiation | 链式法则求导
Question: Differentiate y = (3x² – 2)⁴ with respect to x.
题目：对 y = (3x² – 2)⁴ 关于 x 求导。
Let u = 3x² – 2, then y = u⁴. Derivative dy/du = 4u³, and du/dx = 6x. By the chain rule, dy/dx = dy/du × du/dx = 4u³ × 6x = 24x (3x² – 2)³. This is the derivative in factorised form.
令 u = 3x² – 2，则 y = u⁴。dy/du = 4u³，du/dx = 6x。由链式法则，dy/dx = dy/du × du/dx = 4u³ × 6x = 24x (3x² – 2)³。此即因式分解形式的导数。
7. Basic Indefinite Integration | 基础不定积分
Question: Find ∫ (4x³ + 6x) dx.
题目：求 ∫ (4x³ + 6x) dx。
Integrate term by term: ∫ 4x³ dx = 4 × (x⁴/4) = x⁴, and ∫ 6x dx = 6 × (x²/2) = 3x². Do not forget the constant of integration: ∫ (4x³ + 6x) dx = x⁴ + 3x² + C.
逐项积分：∫ 4x³ dx = 4 × (x⁴/4) = x⁴，∫ 6x dx = 6 × (x²/2) = 3x²。不要遗漏积分常数：∫ (4x³ + 6x) dx = x⁴ + 3x² + C。
8. Definite Integration for Area | 定积分求面积
Question: Find the area under the curve y = x² + 1 between x = 0 and x = 2.
题目：求曲线 y = x² + 1 在 x = 0 到 x = 2 之间的下方区域面积。
The area is given by the definite integral ∫₀² (x² + 1) dx. First find the antiderivative: F(x) = (1/3)x³ + x. Then evaluate F(2) – F(0) = [(1/3)(8) + 2] – [0 + 0] = 8/3 + 2 = 14/3. Therefore the area is 14/3 square units.
面积由定积分 ∫₀² (x² + 1) dx 给出。先求原函数：F(x) = (1/3)x³ + x。然后计算 F(2) – F(0) = [(1/3)(8) + 2] – [0 + 0] = 8/3 + 2 = 14/3。因此面积为 14/3 平方单位。
9. Vector Magnitude Calculation | 向量模长计算
Question: Given vectors a = 3i – 2j and b = i + 4j, find |a + b|.
题目：已知向量 a = 3i – 2j 和 b = i + 4j，求 |a + b|。
First, add the vectors: a + b = (3+1)i + (–2+4)j = 4i + 2j. The magnitude is √(4² + 2²) = √(16 + 4) = √20 = 2√5. Hence |a + b| = 2√5.
先求向量和：a + b = (3+1)i + (–2+4)j = 4i + 2j。模长为 √(4² + 2²) = √(16 + 4) = √20 = 2√5。因此 |a + b| = 2√5。
10. Inverse Function and Domain | 反函数及其定义域
Question: The function f is defined by f(x) = 2x/(x – 1) for x ≠ 1. Find f⁻¹(x) and state its domain.
题目：函数 f 定义为 f(x) = 2x/(x – 1)（x ≠ 1）。求 f⁻¹(x) 并写出其定义域。
To find the inverse, write y = 2x/(x – 1). Swap x and y: x = 2y/(y – 1). Solve for y: x(y – 1) = 2y → xy – x = 2y → xy – 2y = x → y(x – 2) = x → y = x/(x – 2). Thus f⁻¹(x) = x/(x – 2). The domain of f⁻¹ is the range of f. Since f(x) = 2x/(x – 1) = 2 + 2/(x – 1), f can take any real value except 2 (horizontal asymptote). Therefore the domain of f⁻¹ is x ≠ 2.
为求反函数，设 y = 2x/(x – 1)。交换 x 与 y：x = 2y/(y – 1)。解得 y：x(y – 1) = 2y → xy – x = 2y → xy – 2y = x → y(x – 2) = x → y = x/(x – 2)。故 f⁻¹(x) = x/(x – 2)。f⁻¹ 的定义域即 f 的值域。由于 f(x) = 2x/(x – 1) = 2 + 2/(x – 1)，f 可取除 2 以外的一切实数（水平渐近线）。因此 f⁻¹ 的定义域为 x ≠ 2。
